Post by: 3246251196 on April 13, 2006, 01:02:56 PM: well thats kind of what i thought. however, on this guide it was said that WHBLoad would already be there. obviously not. do you know where i can get this? and PPMore too - but not as important.

thanks

-edit-
sure it's in ppaint archive

PPMore has nothing to do with PPaint. It's basically "More" (the once popular text viewer) for PowerPacker compressed text files. I used to always have PPatcher running in the background so that ALL powerpacked data files would decompress transparently and I wouldn't have to worry about using something like PPMore.

PPView (Cloanto) to show images

Post by: amigagr on April 13, 2006, 05:39:49 PM: i know what is and what does ppmore, thanx :-) there is ppanim and ppview too. as for PPatcher i don't see the need to always running a patch that i will use once every year if so...
